Thuasne Silistab Genu Elastic Patella Knee Brace
The kneecap is a particularly weak area of the knee that can become incredibly painful with injury or tendinitis. Compressing the area with 24mmHg strength, the Thuasne Silistab Genu Elastic Patella Knee Brace encourages blood flow to help the knees recover effectively. Choose between an white open patella brace to improve tracking, or a black closed patella brace for greater protection.
What's Included?
Please note that this knee brace can be worn on either the left or right leg.

Our Sizing Tips
- For measurements that fall between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size for greater levels of comfort
- The brace is meant to be compressive and will feel tight as a result; if you would prefer less tightness, please select a larger size
- If you do not have a flexible tape measure, take your measurements with a piece of string, then measure the string with a ruler
- If your joints swell, please take this into account when choosing your size

Flexible Support
Flexible lateral reinforcements are a key feature for the Silistab Genu Patella Brace as they help increase the supportive nature of the sleeve. The support also has a lateral silicone anti-slip system to ensure the brace doesn't move out of place during use.
Open or Closed Patella
The Patella Knee Brace is available in either white or black. The white version has an open patella and the black model has a closed patella. While the closed model protects the area further, the open version improves airflow in and around your knee, and helps improve patella tracking during motion.
